Can Jurisdiction Over Infringers Be Manufactured?

New York Law Journal

January 6, 2014

An article by Hodgson Russ business litigation attorneys Paul I. Perlman, Cynthia Giganti Ludwig, and Melissa N. Subjeck, “Can Jurisdiction Over Infringers Be Manufactured?,” appears in the January 6, 2014, issue of New York Law Journal. The article discusses personal jurisdiction in online infringement cases, including increased efforts by potential infringers to deactivate their websites in order to make it less apparent that the website is directing itself to customers located in other states and courts’ hesitance to recognize sales engineered by plaintiffs for jurisdictional purposes.
